    I have an older Lifebook (S6120).
    There is a felt like lining that has slowly peeled off the back of the laptop.
    Now a metal plate is exposed which gets VERY hot.
    Fujitsu doesn't have any replacement material that they can sell.
    Have any of you replaced this type of heat shield on the back of your Fujitsu laptops?
    Thanks

    I've seen the felt but never had problems with it peeling off. Can't you glue it back on?

    You have also confirmed my assumption that it was there because the surface got hot.
